Scootering Magazine Navigation DTC are usually associated with Lambretta, but this beautiful beast breaks that mould, and delivers an interesting 80s classic. When the original owner and builder of this beautiful Vespa street racer contacted me I was instantly reminded of its 1991 front cover Scootering debut. Next to his mate on a green GP, Paul’s colourful Vespa looked the business. Interestingly, the pair are still good mates and carry on riding together to this day (Paul actually bought the base model P-range from him back in 1990!). Anyhow, back to the scooter, DTC street racers as easily recognised – although the vast majority tend to be full-bodied Lambrettas, Mr. DTC himself, Brendan McNally, has adapted his design to cut-downs, GTSs, Gileras and obviously the Vespa P-range you see here. So when I found that Paul still has his version, I knew it was perfect for this month’s DNCC feature.
